Chambers: 'Strictly' score was slap in face

BBC

Tom Chambers has compared the seven his Waltz was awarded on last week's Strictly Come Dancing to "a slap in the face".

The actor revealed that he loved performing the dance, which was given a ten by Len Goodman, but found Craig Revel Horwood's score of seven hard to take.

Speaking on Strictly Come Dancing: It Takes Two, Chambers said that the judge's mark was "a huge heart sinker".

Dance partner Camilla Dallerup added that she did not feel that they would reach the next round and is now preparing to compete in this week dance-off. "I couldn't believe that they said our names [to reach the semi-final]," she said.

Chambers also revealed that he is attempting to keep his feet on the ground and concentrate on his routines as the competition reaches its final stages, saying: "I'm trying to not get surrounded by the hype. I want to enjoy it."
